The Forge Motorsport short shifter for the Hyundai i20N is an adjustable well engineered solution for those who want to reduce their vehicles gear shift throw.
3D Scan, CAD, and Print
3D scanning and 3D printed prototypes helped to develop the best solution for this short shifter. The most important part of the development for a short shifter is to ensure that the shift cables aren’t under further deflection than when connected to the OEM. The 3D Scans allowed us to locate the repositioned ball pin along the same plane as the OEM, and then the 3D print helped us to confirm our findings before taking the design to our in-house machine shop.
As this is an adjustable short shifter, you can easily change shift length with a 16mm spanner. This creates a maximum reduction of over 33% per gear shift. The image below shows the difference between 1st gear when the shifter is in its OEM position and its shortest position with FMSS7 installed, as well as the shifter in situ.
This reduces shift times along with the chance of selecting the wrong gear, making it the ideal modification for track day and fast road driving.
The kit comes complete with everything you need for installation. Fitting can be carried out in around 1 hour.
